The Great Ruleville Roast 2022

This Friday, Sept 23 & Saturday, Sept 24

Last year our friend Robyn Marlow wrote this about the Great Ruleville roast:

“There are a lot of things that make Ruleville special. We love the special feeling you get when you walk up to people you know downtown. We take pride in neighbor helping neighbor and rallying around friends in good times and bad. We love that feeling when the hot summer gives way to crisp, cooler fall.

All of these things make Ruleville special to us. But what makes Ruleville truly one of a kind is our annual fall festival – The Great Ruleville Roast. Just like our town, The Great Ruleville Roast that started in 2005 keeps growing every year.“

This year’s Great Ruleville Roast 2022 will begin Friday, Sept 23 at 6 pm in downtown Rule Park with the MBN-sanctioned Barbecue Competition, followed at 6:30 pm by a free concert with Lovin’ Ledbetter. The firework show starts at 9:45 pm.

The Festival will continue Saturday, Sept 24, in downtown Rule Park beginning at 9 am with Championship smokers, basters, tasters, and everyday eaters being serenaded by the live entertainment throughout the day, starting again this year with Boundless Love Gospel Group from 9 am – 10 am. Joe Garcia will perform at 10:00 am, followed by Blaze Elite Tumble and Cheer at 10:30 am. The Bayou Band plays at 11:00 am, and last but not least, Mississippi Marshall plays at 2 pm. Saturday will also feature MBN BBQ Competitions and the World Junior BBQ League Competition. We will have arts, crafts, food vendors, and more filling up the park for a family fun day. Come ready for a full day of entertainment.

The Great Ruleville Roast 2022 is the 2nd step for those entering the Delta BBQ Battle. MBN Championship and Patio Division BBQ awards will be handed out around 5 pm Saturday. We hope families from across the delta will join us to celebrate the town we proudly call home. We are “Ruleville & Proud”.
